Meta-analysis on Reading: Unpublished studies needed!

Dear Colleagues,

We are currently conducting a meta-analysis on the memorability and comprehensibility of narrative texts versus expository texts. To that end, we are seeking any unpublished studies you might have in which participants read a narrative and an expository text (either within-subjects or between-subjects), and complete a measure of memory or comprehension for those texts. We are not seeking the original raw data--although it would certainly be welcome and appreciated--means and SDs for conditions will suffice. If you have any studies that might qualify, please do contact me: mar@yorku.ca.

Thank you for taking the time to read and consider this request,

Raymond
